Geometrical product specifications (GPS) — Inspection by measurement of workpieces and measuring equipment — Part 1: Decision rules for proving conformity or non-conformity with specifications.

ISO 14253‑1 establishes the rules to determine when a manufactured part or a measuring instrument should be accepted or rejected while taking into account. Crucially, it provides a standardised framework to resolve a common problem in quality control—correctly deciding the status of a part when its measured value is very close to the specification limit.

Without a standardized rule, disputes frequently arise between suppliers and customers: INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 14253 1.pdf

To declare a part definitively non-compliant, the measured value must fall outside the specification limits by a margin greater than Value Outside Lower Limit: Value 3. The Range of Uncertainty (The "Grey" Zone)

The standard introduces several key terms and definitions that are essential for understanding CMM inspection. Some of these terms include: Mara watched as the team gathered around the

If a measured value falls close to the tolerance limits—such that its uncertainty interval overlaps a limit—neither conformance nor non-conformance can be proven.

Mara watched as the team gathered around the coordinate measuring machine (CMM), the probe moving like a slow insect across the ring’s inner face. Readings jittered. The measurement system analysis revealed a modest uncertainty—small, but enough to push some rings into that grey area. To streamline your quality processes
